Impact investing is a growing global market that creates opportunities for investors to make positive social and environmental change at the same time as generating a financial return so that money can be used again for positive impact.
Sandy Blackburn-Wright is a social innovator, thought leader and change maker. She has 15 years’ experience in international development and large scale transformational change, working as part of the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa between 1988 and 1994.
This lecture will look at the momentum that's been created in the last few years around social impact investing, here in Australia as well as internationally. This will include social impact bonds, payment by outcomes and social impact funds.
